Every detail was beautiful, very comfortable, easy going and enjoyable. The kitchen was convenient, we found the dining table nice as well. We had an amazing trip for our first anniversary! Gorgeous sunsets right up the road, fun shopping a quick walk away. Highly recommended the steak at The Ozona Pig. Location is great, we visited Clearwater Beach, Honeymoon Island, The Florida Aquarium in Tampa and so much more during our stay. Mornings on the balcony were one of our fave times.

Quick FL getaway

My daughter and I took a very quick trip over her college spring break. This place worked really well for us. I liked having the porch to hang out on in the morning when she was still sleeping. We liked having the bikes. Very cute and quiet neighborhood. Shops and restaurants a quick walk away. Great area and great hosts.

Perfect location

This was our second stay here. It’s perfect for when visiting family in Dunedin. The property is immaculate and very comfortable. The balcony is a great place for relaxing with a cup of coffee in the morning and a glass of wine at night. Convenient location to many activities and restaurants. We’re looking forward to our next stay.

Perfect location

Ideal accommodations for the two of us. The studio apartment is beautifully decorated and comfortable. The balcony was an added plus which was great for our morning coffee and evening wine. Close to restaurants, walking/biking trails, fishing and golf.. the Nest is a perfect getaway.

EXCELLENT FOR STAYCATION

Well located for access to Upper Pinellas locations like Honeymoon Island, Dunedin, Tarpon Springs. In a nice neighborhood with Ozona restaurants and sunset view a short walk. Old Florida vibe, if you like Sanibel, you should like The Nest. Very clean, nice bed, kitchenette, beach chic decore. Easy check-in, good communication with Susan. Strong recommendation.

Nice little escape

This place has it all. Nice bed, linens, tv, dishes, bicycles, sitting porch and close to the ocean for sunsets, restaurants, pubs and even the post office. Nice quiet village community for walking the neighborhood or on the bike trail. The Hosts are very friendly and always willing to help out with any requests you may have. Easy drive to Honeymoon island beach and fred Howard state park and beach. Overall just the right size for a couple or two and we look forward to returning soon.

Great little nest

A very cute room in a great area with lots of extra's. It was clear that a lot of love was put into "The Nest". We enjoyed coffee on the deck, borrowed the bikes and made a trip to Honeymoon Island-- bar hopped at High and Dry and Hurricane Eddies and had dinner and a swim at Ozona Blues on the way home. We walked to the end of the street and took in the sunset. A perfect getaway.

Amazing and Relaxing Getaway

Had a wonderful stay at the nest! The property is located in a quiet neighborhood and walking distance to the water. (just a nice place to sit, no beach) The balcony is perfect for some end of the evening wine drinking and conversation. Susan and her husband were amazing hosts and available if needed. Favorite part was our trip was the bike ride to Dunedin. Took the bikes on the trail and had a day out without the traffic and congestion of Clearwater Beach. I highly recommend this property.

Wonderful getaway for our anniversary

We couldn't have been happier with the Nest! My husband and I prefer quiet and private and this place was just what we were looking for. Our hosts were responsive to my questions about what to do in the area. We loved honeymoon island and Caledesi Island. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and the yummy nearby restaurants also were a quick walk. The Nest was very tastefully decorated and made wonderful use of the space. We had everything the two of us needed. They provided beach chairs, umbrella, and towels for taking to the beach. Bikes were also provided but we didn't have time to use those. Might have to make another trip out soon! Would definitely stay here again.

Staycation for hubs bday

Check-in was very easy & the home gave off Key West vibes. I love the Ozona area and it was very convenient having a raw bar, a brewery and a barbecue restaurant two blocks up the road from us. House had everything we needed and even offered bike bikes for us to ride if we wanted to. Although this house is situated in the owners yard, we never saw them.
